About this episode
Krishna's "coincidences" didn't calm down—they escalated. Part Two of Meet the Pilgrims picks up right where the last episode left off: real people, real spiritual detours, and that unmistakable moment when you stop chasing "success" and start getting redirected by grace.
Live from Govardhan Eco Village, this continuation brings even kirtanf the Wisdom of the Sages pilgrimage into view—hardcore kids from the punk scene, yoga teachers, musicians, academics, kirtan leaders, and seekers who thought they were just "improving themselves"… until bhakti started improving them. And sometimes it's a former corporate success story singing kirtan, wandering musicians Googling "kirtan near me" and ending up singing for Radhanath Swami, and a PhD student realizing the ladder of achievement was leaning against the wrong wall.
And it's not just about "how I got here." It's about what happens after you arrive—when humility opens the channel, association does its work, and spiritual life stops being theory and becomes transformation. Sometimes the miracle is a "secret temple." Sometimes it's a new marriage that begins with a second-date kirtan. And sometimes it's a former corporate success story singing kirtan on the streets of Mumbai because he finally meant it when he said, "Teach me how to be a devotee."
